Clinical and prognostic impact of arterial stiffness in arterial hypertension and hear failure
Do coronary circulation abnormalities play an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy?
Hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a powerful predictor of coronary events. It is characterized by coronary circulation abnormalities such as impaired coronary blood flow autoregulation, decreased coronary reserve, increased minimal coronary vascular resistance, subendocardial under-perfusion during exercise, and increased risk of myocardial infarction and death in the presence of coronary occlusion. These abnormalities appear to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of cardiac complications in arterial hypertension.
Although the imbalance between coronary supply and myocardial needs has often been incriminated in the pathogenesis of hypertensive LVH, no convincing evidence has been provided to date that LVH is the consequence, rather than the cause, of a primary defect of myocardial perfusion in hypertensive patients

Distal embolic protection device transit through a left internal mammary artery for safely treating a saphenous vein graft anastomosed at a Y-configuration.
Stent Dislodgment and Retrieval During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
During PCI, stent entrapment and dislodgment in the coronary arteries is a rare but potentially fatal complication that can lead to emergent cardiac surgery. Percutaneous stent retrieval is an alternative way to solve this challenging complication while avoiding cardiac surgery
